He was very much pleased with the design through- out and also conferred vnth Mr. Eichards, the contractor, while here, as to the building of his proposed edifice. There are seyeral others also looking to Markdale church as a model from which to build. A SHARP student was called up by the worthy professor of a celebrated college, and asked the question, .••Can a man see without eyes?" "Yes, su:," was the prompt reply.

It is sometimes fortunate to be unsuccessful. Mb. John J, Dalton, provincial land surveyor, of this place,, has just returned from Toronto. We think it of special importance tc our readers to mention that he has brought with him copies of the original Field Notes of ten of the surrounding townships which he had been industriously em- ployed in preparing for the benefit and peace of the farming community. We may congratulate ourselves in haying a man of Mr. D's enterprise and care in our vicinity. â€" [Chatsworth News. A NEW swindle is on foot that faim- ers should look out for. A clerical looking'gentlemau represents himself as an agent for a religious society and delivers Bibles and hymn books gratis. We do not advise our readers to whistle up the dogs as sooh as any clerical looking gentleman comes to the premises, but if one comes along acting as we have stated, takes his dinner, for which he insists upon pay- ing 25 cents and asks them to sign a receipt for it, they are safe m applying the boots on sight, for if the receipt is signed they will find themselves let in for a good round sum in a neighboring bank not many months afterwards. EvKBY year every local paper gives from $100 to $5,000 in free lines for the Pole benefit ofthe vicinity in which it is located. No other can or will dd this. The local editor m proportion to his meavs does more for his town than any other ten men, and in all fairness, man with man, he ought to be supported, not because you happen to like him or admire his writing, but becanse a local paper is the best in- vestment a community can make. It may not be brilUani; or crowded with great thoughts, but financially it is more of a benefit to a community than the preacher or teacher. To-day the editors of local ^pers do the most work for the least money of any man on earth. Subscribe for yeur local paper, not as a charity, but as an investment. â€" [Judge Davis. iirey Division Orangr4» IVp. 2.
